MOORESVILLE, N.C. (AP) — Kevin Harvick will run a minimum 12 Nationwide Series races next season for JR Motorsports.

The two-time Nationwide Series champion will drive the No. 5 Chevrolet for JRM. His schedule is still being completed, but Hunt Brothers Pizza will sponsor Harvick at Bristol, Charlotte and both Texas races.

Harvick won the Nationwide title in 2001 and 2006 and ranks third on the career series wins list with 40.

The No. 5 car runs a full season for JRM but is driven by multiple drivers. The team has not set its 2014 lineup.
